RE: [ActiveDir] The remote computer has ended the connection.

Are there any error messages in the event log?  There are several problems I have seen where some kind of message will show up in the logs that tell you where to start looking. The most common one I have seen lately, if you see an error in the system event log that says The RDP protocol component "DATA ENCRYPTION" detected an error in the protocol stream and has disconnected the client. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;323497   Also, is the server running in Remote Desktop mode or Terminal Services mode?  If Terminal Services is checked in the Windows Components Wizard, then it is in Terminal Services mode.  Otherwise, it is just a Remote Desktop.  If it is in Terminal Services mode, then you need to make sure it is talking to a Terminal Services Licensing server.  You would see errors in the event log for this too.   Kevin From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Technical Support Sent: Tuesday, October 17, 2006 11:01 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org; ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] The remote computer has ended the connection.   Yes it doesnt happened with any other serves but i have rebooted it more than twice. but no gud luck.   what do you guys suggest in this case? did only rebooting second time resolved the issue for you?   It worked for me when i have disjoined from my domain. but i am sure this has nothing to do with any GPO. Also same thing happened for me when i joined this to any other domain. other than the previous one.   Thanks!!! Ravi   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Thommes, Michael M.

I have also seen where a second reboot is necessary for RDP to work.  I have not determined the cause of this yet.  It does not happen on all servers.   Mike Thommes   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Vinnie Cardona Sent: Tuesday, October 17, 2006 10:29 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] The remote computer has ended the connection.   I have noticed that after updating to the latest security patches and rebooting that some (not all) of my servers had an issues with RDP.  It cleared after rebooting a second time.  Root cause?  Unknown at this time.   -vC From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Technical Support Sent: Tuesday, October 17, 2006 8:28 AM To: activedir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] The remote computer has ended the connection. Importance: High   Hi,   I am trying to access one of my servers using Remote Connection. I am using mstsc but its not connecting me to the server. error "The remote computer has ended the connection". However if i am using mstsc /v:IP Address /console it lets me connect to it.   Problem is in this mode i can use only admin id when connected like this. I want my engineers (who dont have administrator priviledges) to access this. its not possible in this mode.   This all happened when i rebooted my server.   Please suggest what can be done to normalize the things.   Thanks!!!
